We have the old 33 Poker Run boat with 500efis here in town.

Also, the green Grand Prix 342 sat at Big Thunder forever!!

Yes.

That's the poker run boat from back in 97'

Triple 800SC's.

The middle engine exhausted out the side,
man was it loud.

Was the boat 40'? That thing looks sweet.

It was a 420, so it was 42'.

I like the Wette Vette. What model was used for that one?

jmeng 07-23-2009 08:59 PM

I've got an old Hot Boat somewhere that has the article on the Wette Vette. I think it was a Baja Bandit???

JasonSmith 07-23-2009 09:14 PM

223 Bandit.

I thought I had an old Popular Mechanics magazine with that boat in it.

Yes sir that is my favorite.

They are all very nice photos Greg.

I wish you would also put them on the "History of Baja Thread" for future reference.

Thanks

Actually, it probably was closer to 40',
they lopped off the molded swim platform (that
the 420 had)

Thats the only one made.

The guy who owns it lives in Low Moor.

He use to have a satellite store down there for
Hawkeye Boat Sales.

Mike Ohrt owns it, mikes body shop in Low Moore, its for sale. Total redo on interior, and yes loud azz, got tired of tickets and hassle at loto so he sold house and left area. Mike is a great guy and has done alot of work on several of my friends boats as well as mine over the years.
